There are twists in the middle and twists towards the final.
PLAYERS stays true to their style, but the twists here are not the type that shock or amaze . One of the twists- about the double crosser -- does catch you by surprise, but the
remaining ones don't.
The highlights of the movie are wonderful performance by lead actors,
stylised stunts, stunning visuals and comic sequences. But Abbas
Mustan have added some extra elements, which were not in the
original movie and they make the movie very lengthy and boring.
Bipasha looks superconfident and fabulous. Neil Nitin Mukesh has a
challenging role, but he did not performed it well.. Bobby Deol has been
sidelined and wasted. Omi Vaidya tickles the funny bones. Sonam
Kapoor, Sikander Kher and Vinod Khanna have done their respective jobs
well.
However, Pritam soundtrack in Players are not very impressive The
music has failed to bring back the magic that he had in
the music of Dhoom , Dhoom 2 and Race . Overall, Players may match
with The Italian Job in its classic standards, it is obviously a good
commercial entertainer.
